Creature in crazy binge (5)

I believe the answer is:

being

'creature' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

'crazy binge' is the wordplay.
'crazy' is an anagram indicator.
'binge' anagrammed gives 'BEING'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for being that I've seen before include "See 9" , "Existence" , "substance" , "A living creature" , "Living thing" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
